In this issue of the Journal of Screenwriting we metaphorically travel the world, its articles spanning international topics, practices and audiences, as well as the authors of these articles working across many continents.

Aims & Scope

 

The Journal of Screenwriting is an international double-blind peer-reviewed journal published three times per year. The journal highlights current academic and professional thinking about the screenplay – in all its forms and guises – and stimulates debate about contemporary and historical screenwriting practices, as well as the teaching of screenwriting and training of screenwriters. The journal is committed to research that represents a truly global perspective. The journal is discursive, critical and rigorous, and is inclusive of all forms of research and scholarship in what is a dynamic and developing field.

 

This title is indexed with Scopus and the Web of Science’s Arts & Humanities Citation Index (AHCI).
